Prevalence of isolated systolic and isolated diastolic hypertension subtypes in China [PDF]

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Hypertension, 2004
Isolated systolic hypertension (ISH), more so than any other hypertension subtype, increases the risk for stroke and coronary heart disease. The prevalence of ISH versus other hypertension subtypes in the general Chinese adult population is not known.The prevalence of isolated systolic and isolated diastolic hypertension (IDH) was examined in a ...

Pitfalls in blood pressure measurement in daily practice [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Background. Accurate blood pressure (BP) readings and correctly interpreting the obtained values are of great importance. However, there is considerable variation in the different BP measuring methods suggested in guidelines and used in hypertension ...

Blood pressure response to renal denervation is correlated with baseline blood pressure variability: a patient-level meta-analysis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Background: Sympathetic tone is one of the main determinants of blood pressure (BP) variability and treatment-resistant hypertension. The aim of our study was to assess changes in BP variability after renal denervation (RDN).

Effect of a reduction in glomerular filtration rate after nephrectomy on arterial stiffness and central hemodynamics: rationale and design of the EARNEST study [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Background: There is strong evidence of an association between chronic kidney disease (CKD) and cardiovascular disease. To date, however, proof that a reduction in glomerular filtration rate (GFR) is a causative factor in cardiovascular disease is ...

Cardiovascular Risk of Isolated Systolic or Diastolic Hypertension in Young Adults [PDF]

open access: yesCirculation, 2020
Background: Little is known regarding health outcomes associated with isolated systolic hypertension (ISH), isolated diastolic hypertension (IDH), or systolic and diastolic hypertension (SDH) among young adults with stage 1 hypertension, defined using the 2017 American College of Cardiology/American Heart ...

Isolated Diastolic Hypertension among Adults in Saudi Arabia: Prevalence, Risk Factors, Predictors and Treatment. Results of a National Survey

open access: yesBalkan Medical Journal, 2016
Background: In the past, diastolic hypertension was the main criterion for treatment, but currently, systolic pressure is the main criterion because it was thought that Isolated Diastolic Hypertension (IDH) is not associated with complications.

Combined associations of general obesity and central obesity with hypertension stages and phenotypes among children and adolescents in Zhejiang, China

open access: yesThe Journal of Clinical Hypertension, 2023
General and central obesity are suggested to be associated with elevated blood pressure (BP), whereas few studies have investigated their combined associations with hypertension in children.

Improved ventricular function during inhalation of PGI(2) aerosol partly relies on enhanced myocardial contractility [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
Inhaled prostacyclin (PGI(2)) aerosol induces selective pulmonary vasodilation. Further, it improves right ventricular ( RV) function, which may largely rely on pulmonary vasodilation, but also on enhanced myocardial contractility.

Leg and arm adiposity is inversely associated with diastolic hypertension in young and middle-aged United States adults

open access: yesClinical Hypertension, 2022
Background We sought to determine the association between appendicular adiposity and hypertension, with the purpose of better understanding the role of body fat distribution on blood pressure (BP).
